Then there’s also the Siren, who’s a unique threat in that she can charm any familiar you have to use as a weapon against you. Like there’s Hornfel, a funny little guy that rides around in a minecart in an arena filled with railroad tracks, tossing bombs and summoning more threats down the tracks. The bosses are also more fun because some of them bring completely unique tricks to the fight. Going down the alternate path provides a fresh experience for fans of Isaac (unless they already played Antibirth, I guess) that really shakes things up. You got flies that orbit around you while firing inward, you got enemies that spit little bomb flies, you got an annoying melee enemy that attacks with a whip. A large part of it is that the new enemies bring new behaviors previously unseen in Isaac. I don’t know if it’s just because I’m used to the normal route content, but the alt path stuff feels like a hard mode path. In exchange for resources you find, you can diverge from the main path to Antibirth‘s original content. So, let’s start out with Antibirth‘s alternate path. And so, The Binding of Isaac: Antibirth ended up becoming the centerpiece of Repentance, bringing over its many new ideas while mixing in some original stuff, and I can easily say that this is the best expansion for Isaac. Unlike other certain companies that like to take down fan games, the creators of Isaac decided to do the best possible thing: canonize it. Antibirth was an impressive bit of fan content, to the point that a lot of people preferred it over the canon expansion (at least in its initial iteration). Antibirth introduces a bunch of unique new levels to counter the canon ones, all with their own unique enemies and bosses, ending with a whole new intense final boss.
Well, the sting from that was mitigated by a lot of fans because around the same time, some fans released a fan expansion: Antibirth.īesides the usual new items and enemies that would be expected from a fan expansion, Antibirth went above and beyond by creating a whole alternate game path. So, a long time ago I wrote about the Afterbirth+ expansion and how it was kinda underwhelming at launch. And honestly, it better be the last expansion because this game absolutely feels like a finale to a huge game built up over the years. The Binding of Isaac: Repentance is the latest expansion to The Binding of Isaac, and may actually be its last expansion.
